Learn MoreNamaskaar is a word expressing normal greetings. It is an Indian way of initiating any conversation when we meet any person – be it a face to face meeting or addressing a public gathering. Even a newsreader on television starts with Namaskaar.
In Western countries, they shake hands when they meet each other. However, during pandemics like Covid, it was realized by the world that the Indian system of Namaskaar, by joining one’s own hands together near one’s chest, is more hygienic and proper. It is considered safer not to touch an unknown person. Anyway.
However, in this series, I have treated this word in a different sense, i.e. bowing before somebody with reverence. We bow before God or our parents and other elderly persons. We seek their blessings. Sometimes, people offer Namaskaar to even a younger person who has performed some outstanding feat. Therefore, I wrote about our patriots who dedicated and sacrificed their lives for our country’s independence or development. They truly deserved our Namaskaars.
Whenever I think of great or towering personalities, I feel inferior. I keep on introspecting as to what we have been doing in life. Sometimes I relate this thought to our profession.
